All collapsible boxes produced by NO-NAIL BOXES are 100% plywood and steel. These two materials make recycling them particularly easy when customers no longer can or want to use them.
To ensure correct recycling of the boxes, NO-NAIL BOXES advises its customers to contact their usual local waste management facility to arrange for collection of the boxes to be recycled.
The boxes will be taken to a recycling/upgrading plant where they will be crushed before their plywood and steel components are automatically separated. The steel particles can be easily recovered by magnetisation.
The wood will, for example, be used for electricity and heat generation while the steel will be given a second life.
One shuttle crate can replace 50 packages!
